This is a fun project that better acquaints you with the many cool special effects that you can do during the production and post-production phases of creating video shorts.
In your project, you should demonstrate the following Super Hero powers:
1. An earthquake scene (this scene can be done during production/filming or during editing)
2. Use the electricity effect
3. Use the rain effect
4. Use the fairly dust effect
5. Use the flash effect to make the super hero disappear
6. Use the negative effect to demonstrate X-Ray vision powers
7. Use the reverse clip direction function to show a super hero power
Scenes 8 and 9: Try two other scenes of your choosing.
*A scene does NOT have to be limited to one shot. For example, in the X-Ray vision scene, you might show the super hero walk up to a locker where you cut to a point-of-view shot that shows X-Ray vision through a locker. See the example below!!
Things to remember:
1. Give directions to your subjects. It is important that you communicate to them exactly what then need to say and do.
2. Use lights, camera, action to cue your subjects when you are rolling. Leave two seconds of "lead out" time after pressing record on the camera, otherwise you'll miss the first half of a second and you'll need to re-shoot.
3. Do NOT review footage in the field. If you are not certain whether or not a clip is good, re-shoot it another time.
4. Try not to pan at all in this project. Keep your camera still and let your subjects move in and out of the frame.
5. NO ZOOMING!!!
Project Requirements and Evaluation (cut and paste this into your own Wiki Space):
Keep the camera steady where appropriate-the rule of thirds should be applied (1 pt)
Use medium and close-ups shots...stay away from long shots for this project (1 pt)
Your project should include short titles prior to each slide (1 pt)
All of the required 9 scenes are included in the project (1 pt)
Good team work skills-partners shared equally in each phase of the project (1 pt) Grade: Comments:
